As children, we are taught to memorize the verse, “Twinkle, twinkle, little star,” and as a next step we learn to locate the dipper in the sky. Then, at a.certain age we start star-gazing, a pastime handed‘ down for many generations. Yet we never get any closer to those far away bodies, but last night at the ‘Auditorium, when the Elks put on their minstrel, there were 40 stars, Bismarck stars at that, who took pos- session of the stage and gave on of .the best amateur entertainments im- aginable. It was an all-star cast.

In the first scene Mr. Vale took the part of Miss Tatley's lover. Besides taking the leading speaking role he sang the first big song hit of the even: ing, “Dearie Girl,” with ‘Miss Tatley. ‘Mr. Vale has a most pleasing voice and was one of the real stars: Joe Eastwood interprcted the part of an English lord and sang pleasingly, “I Want a Flock of Girls.” He was sup- ported in this song by 12°of the girls and Aunt Mandy. Earl Tostevin, rep- resenting a traveling man from. Chi- cago, sang the telephone song with Miss Homan, and Charles R. Adams, the director, who has made a host of friends while in the city, gave the professional touch to the first scene ‘by singing a group of the latest song marck’s fairest young girls, as one of! hits with Miss Helen Fisk at the pi- ano. F. A. Copelin and Al Rosen took the part of the comedians, rivaling Weber and Fields. 7m Some Roman Senator. Dr. T. M. (MacLachlan, Phil Webb and Brooks Hoskins presented the second scene, which was a travesty, j entitled, “In Roman Days.” Dr. Mac- ‘Lachlan took the part of a Roman senator, and he took it well.

It was sung, and sung well, by Joe Henry. But it! remained for the Bismarck Male quartet, Miller, Halverson, Ar- not and Humphreys, to get four en- cores. ‘They sang, for the first num- ber, “I Want to Hear the Village Choir,” and ended by singing “The Two Flies.” Their numbers were all humorous and were given in a finish- ed manner. 4 (Much of the’ credit of the show is due to the orchestra, which was com- posed of ali local people: Mrs. E.

The setting of the last scene was superb, The entire cast was seated on the stage, which was elevat- ed with tiers of seats reaching in the back several feet high.

Joe Henry of the Miller & Draper company, taking the part of a colored comedian, sang a number of the late coon: songs, which were great hits. He was followed by Henry Halverson, a member of the Bismarck Male quar- tet and one of the favorite tenors of the city. He sang “The Sunshine of Your Smile.” His clear tenor voice was heard to advantage in this pret- ty love ballad and he was forced to respond to an encore. George Russ, one of the colored comedians, made an instantaneous hit singing “Walkin’ the Dog.” He was joined in the cho- Tus and stunts by the other comedi- ans. “Young America, We're Strong For You,” sung by Master Richard Penwarden, touched the hearts of everyone in the audience. His lit- tle voice was angelic in its sweet- ness and he was forced to sing anoth- er verse. Joe Eastwood sang “On the South Sea Isle,” and W. L. Miller, “A ‘Simple Melody.” This song, which was featured by the playing of a vio- lin obligato by little Roberta fest, was one of the real artistic numbers of the program. The effect was mout pleasing and called forth unstinted praise. “Pretty Baby,’ sung by R. M. Beware the Coid Storage Egg!
